Arcadis was appointed to provide detailed design and construction management for over 520 residential lots within the development, the neighbourhood activity centre, and a number of external services. The Arcadis team is also delivering works for roads, sewers and water, as well as taking on superintendent duties, construction supervision and all authority and stakeholder consultation.

In order to enable the construction of the development in sub-stages, design works had to include the consideration of a number of interim and ultimate scenarios, both for roads and storm-water detention systems. A key consideration with these design works was achieving the least sacrificial works in the long term.
